Autumn Flowers for a Fall Wedding

October 26th, 2016 Staff

The sights and sounds of fall can provide wonderful inspiration for the theme and decor of your big day. Take advantage of the flowers of the season to brighten up your bouquets and personalize the overall feel of the venue.

Autumn flowers come in a wide variety of both bright and subtle colors. From deep purple dahlias to bright yellow, green and orange sunflowers, or even red and pink dianthus, the season provides you with a rich palette of vibrant colors from which to create your bridal bouquet.

Twigs, wheat, and acorns, as well as plants like clover and seeded eucalyptus, can provide lovely color contrast and texture to an autumn bouquet and emphasize the rustic harvest spirit of the season. Hypericum berries, pepper berries or other fruit can add interesting shapes and sizes to an arrangement while playing up autumn’s lush fruitfulness.

Whether you prefer a luxurious, stunning combination of contrasting hues or tend to go for a more sweet, subdued cluster of monochromatic blooms, there is no lack of options from the flowers of fall.

Autumn Advantages

Choosing flowers that are in season means they are plentiful and readily available. Your bridal bouquet, the flowers for the bridesmaids and even arrangements for the ceremony and reception venues, can reflect your chosen fall color and provide a seamless and stunning visual effect.

Aside from sporting rich and deep colors, most autumn flowers are hardy. This means they can last long after the ceremony and reception, and even be repurposed for a farewell brunch or sent home with you, the bridal party or your guests.

Experts in weddings and floral arrangements know that mixing up your flower choices with fall buds can add a unique and individual touch to your wedding that represents you and your significant other’s personalities.

By choosing just the right kind of flowers to complement the colors, theme and setting of your wedding, you can achieve a look of stunning elegance and offer interesting inspiration for your wedding guests. They will be inspired to think outside the box and consider these autumn staples for their future weddings.
